We talk with Jean-Frédéric Caron, the Executive Director of Orchestre de l’Agora, an ensemble that uses music as a tool for sustainable social change. We discuss how musicians work to promote environmental awareness and to make music more accessible to the public, the way we perceive our environment through sound, and why it’s so important we make sure younger musicians have the ability to continue their work.
The Orchestre de l’Agora has organized a fundraising concert on June 12th, 2024, and they plan to donate the proceeds to environmental organizations including Sierra Club Canada. You can find out more about this Gala de la Terre concert here: https://galadelaterre.com/
